Don't let the "knockers" jar you, but lf

THE STORY
OF DEBEVOISE
Br WM. H. OSBORNK
tOopyrlgbt, 1904, by DmUj Storj Pub. Co.)
THE general manager of the Empire
Oum & Gelantlne concern, called to
Debevolse:
"Debevolse." he said. in solemn tones,
*'P. B. Hathaway has got the govern?
ment contract, or will have it, this year.
I got lt from the inside. This is some
thing new for them. and lt means a
small fortune. And we've got to have
their buslr.ess. I want you to go out and
?<?'' P. E lathaway all the stuff they'll
*?<Hti. Sel' it? that's all." He stopped.
Debevolse." he began again,
'.? a blanied good salesman, when
y 11 Keap sober. For heaven's sake keep
sooer this time."
Debevolse flushed slightly. and turned
on hisheel. "Is that all you wanted to
say?"' he inquired. "That's enough."
answered the manager, "you sell em
enough stuff so that they can make glue
from now to kingdom come. We need
the money and aa need it bad."
Debevoise. t?. ,t saJd, was not theonly
salesman oa tha ojB] aiaa, Thara were
several arho pael ad up their frrtpa about
that baaa aad atartad, as tha crow me.s.
for p. B. Rathaaray A Oa.. Baaaaractarara
of glue BBd iBl BBd ot lier thinps. Vor
haps Mr. Tlmathv BlgalaaoB, of tha
house of Tortor mnlsoll, was the most
alert of these.
'Tm B eraekar-JBCk salesman in pum."
Mr. Hipginson was wc.nt to tt-il himself.
"I'd llka t<i s..- tha naaa who < an do me
at tbe aajaa.1
But Mr. Higgtnaon, fora raaaaa of his
own, selected as his companion upon
thi6 trip. n very sporty MBBd of his.
whose name araa Dohhlaa. Dohbtaa had
a Irtaty eya, i raady taagaaaad a mag
netlcpersonality?hut he was possessed
of little money. though with an lnflnite
capaelty for enjoyment.
"Now. Dobbins." carefully explained
Mr. Higginson. "you see this roll of
^U18*?" Mr. Dobbins. who had never
yet been friphtened by a roll of bills.
looked at it. and reached for it. ButMr.
Higgjnson still held on.
"Now, Dohblns." went on Hippinson,
"we a.re going. you and I, down to Don?
aldson. on business. lt is most partlcu
larly necessary that my concern. Porter
Birdsell, should get an order down
there that mean- a profit to 'em of thou
sands and thoasaada of dollars. Now
you know BM, don't yoat You know
that I don't go around saying things
thataln't so? And when I tai] you that
there are a dozen men wanderinp down
to Donaldson. aad tlint thera are a lot
more comir.p o>. behlad them, and that
out of all those men?I am the ehBB
who'll land that order?when I tell you
that, you will wonder why I take you.
ni tell you. There's a man named De?
bevolse. Ha thlBka he's tho real thing
in gum. ITe's pnod. I will admit. Rnt
he has one falllBg. Whenever hestrikes
8 town, the first thing he does is tofill
up. and hBBg around all the aftemoon
and evenir.p, far Into the night, and
next morning he simmers down to busi?
ness, but not till then. But then. he's
all business. and nothing elr,e. Now,
here's where you come in. If Debevolse
turns up in Donaldson this evening,
you're to take this roll of bills?"
Again did Mr. Dohhtna reach for it,
but failed to eveataata. "And," con?
tinued Higginson. " I depend on you to
keep that fellow Debevoise drunk as a
lord, all night, and aja day to-morrow.
That's the whole thing. Do that?with
this roll of bills. and I ean get that order
Wtatever you do. keep him drunk and
keep him away from P. B. Hathaway &
Co. That's all."
They landed in Donaldson. And sure
enough, as they sauntered down the
ttreet, there was Debevoise walking on
the other side, grip in hand. hot and tired
and dusty.
They caught up with him. and Mr
Dobbins was duly introduced. "Now
remember," whiapered Higginson. into
tha ear of Dobbir.F. "keep him away
from that blc in.-rrv- that you see there
ln the hollow. aud keep him d-unk all
day to-morrow."
Mr. Dobbins. past niaster in the art of
making an evening tro ploasantly and
fast. started In. And Mr Debevoise. flnd
lng that Mr Dobbins was made up ofthe
real fibre. joined him. They began with
a wlne supper that dlminlshed Mr. Dol
bins roil to some oxtont; then they t <ok
in the local tbeaters. then a gambling
house or two. then with a few other
kindred spirits. sat about a table at the
hotel. and just drank. drank. drank. Mr.
Dobbins kept constantly at the side of
Mr. Debevoise. and kept up a ftow of
conversation that was remarkable.
"Hlgginson." remarkod Mr. Dobbins
to himself, "may know how to make
money, but 1 oertainly know how to
spend it. all risht. all right."
Mr. Debevoise was not altopether at
aase. Something seemed. from time to
time, to trouble him. He was trying
evidentjy not to forget himself. But
Dobbins was constantly on hand with a
fresh order and a fresh sally. and a mer
ry burst of laughter which attracted Mr.
Debevoise's attention from whateverhe
may have had in mind.
Once he took out a note book. "I?I
mustn't." he murmured to Dobbins. "I
?I mustn't forget?business. Business
before pleasure. don't you know. I?I
mustn't forget."
"Pleasure." returned Mr. Dobbins.
neatly, "ls my business. So I have pleas?
ure before pleasure and pleasure after
pleasure; in fact I'm very bnsy at It all
the time."
Whereupon Mr. Debevoise called for
another round. and time went on?and
on?and on.
The others left. but the two stllj re
mained. Debevoise kept constantly re
ferring to something that he hadtodo.
"I must not forget business." he said.
But he did forget business. He forgot
everything. It was after five o'clock in
the morning that his head sank upon the
table and he fell asleep. Mr. Dobbins.
who had drunk sparingly during the
evening. but who. nevertheless. was
weary. called a hotel portor.
"I think I can improve on Higginson's
plan." he whispered to himself. Then
he spoke aloud to the portor. "Porter."
he said. "this gentleman and I are due
at East Monroe. up on the mountain. at
eight o'clock. Can you get us a rig?"
East Monroo. as Dobbins had found
from Inquiry tho night before. was a
small deserted village far up the moun?
tain side without railroad acrommoda
tions. Dobbins roasoned that if Mr. De?
bevoise arete landed there. he wouid
have some diffioulty. oonsidering every?
thing. in makini: connections with P.

STRANGE OLD HOUSE.
EVEN TRAMPS AP.E SHUNNINQ
ITS UNLOCKED DOORS.
Eor Two Years the Property Has Been
Vacant and No One Has TJome
to Either Claim or In
habit It. ,
A Hartford (Conn.) paper says there
ra standing in tlie westeru part of tha
t :wn of Se; mour. not iar from the banks
of the Housatonic river, a house that
has been deserted aimost two years, ar.d
yet. while there is a small colony of
Italians living not far away and tramps
roam through this region as they do in
all parU of Connecticut, nothing in the
house, apparently, has been molested,
and it, with all its furniture aud belong
ings, is just as it was left when theown
er was Laken away to the hospital todie,
nearly two years ago. The beds in the
house have their coverings in place, the
kitchen and other furniture has not
been touched. and the curtains at the
windows are in place. even old muslin
furtains, in addition to the regulation
paper shades are found at some of the
windows. The house is not locked, and
has not been. and yet no one except a
curiosity hunter ever crosses the
threshold, and tramps do not, as would
naturally be expected. hold out there
during the winter.
Last week a party of flve young men
and women camped out on the west bank
of the river and occupied a log cabln. A
woman from Bristol was the guest of
one of thecampersoutforaday. and dur?
ing her stay at the camp an excursion
was made to the "haunted house." as it
is called in that section. They were
warned in broken English by an Ital
ian living near by not to go near the
house, but they persisted and found ita
condition as stated above. One of the
women took away with her a book of
an ancient date. and one of the men of
the party seeured an old-fashioned po
tato masher for uae in the camp. When
they were ready to return across the
river four went in a large rowboat,
POTATO MASHER SOUVENIR.
while the Bristol woman was paddled
across the river in a canoe. Thia
woman and the man speeulated much
as to why the house was loft desolate,
as they did nut know ihe story at the
time, and they run.-eivi-d tho idua of
frightenlng the oiher imnibers of the
party, who had pn-.-eded them, by
palming off ou them a story of a
small pos <aso.

that it was with faallaga of an.xiety that
the advent ol" the own.-r of a -
launch that BBMB BB and down the river
was awaited that evening in order that
tho party might learn the truth about
the deserted house. He said that the
man who owned tlu- place out lived most
of his near n-latives. and that a few
years before his death he drove out of
the plare his only living relative. a step
son. and that the latter eame back todie
on the thraaaald at the laoaaaa few years
later. The old man then lived alone in
the house until a sore developed on hia
leg and he was taken hy the town au

an operation. At that time he expeet. |

Although tlie baal sponges come fr^m

them up from the rocks in the depths of

found on the shores of England lying
about the heaeli washed up by the tide or
covering rocks or stflsjdaaj to shells into

Within these limits sponges of many

They brighten the brown beach, these
